Each month, the staff of the Center for Coalfield Justice looks forward to hosting our CCJ Community Open House because you – our members and supporters – are the heart of our organization. You are why CCJ exist, and you help to guide our plans and actions.
At last month’s meeting, Veronica Coptis, our Executive Director, presented on the history of CCJ and how we approach working with communities. This month, Nick Hood, one of our community organizers, is going to present our new Fracking in the Coalfields Virtual Tour! This tour has been quite a while in the making, and we look forward to watching it with you and hearing your thoughts and comments.
CCJ’s Community Open House is held on the last Tuesday of each month in our office from 6-8 p.m. This month, the date is May 28th, and CCJ will be providing sandwiches and drinks. Any other contributions of food or drink are welcome!
For the month of May, we are making an additional ask of our members and supporters: please bring some nonperishables for the Waynesburg Food Bank, the Corner Cupboard, who has generously agreed to host one of our Economic Workshops in Greene County on June 11th.
If you’re able to join us, please let us know by emailing or calling Lisa DePaoli, our Outreach Coordinator, at lisa@centerforcoalfieldjustice.org or 724-229-3550 ext 101 or commenting on the Facebook event page. As always, our meetings are held in our office at 14 E. Beau Street, Washington, PA.
We look forward to seeing you!
